SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. In the communication of our Dublin Correspondent, dated the 19th instant, there will be found two letters from Mr. O'Connell—one to the editor of the Dublin Pilot, and the other to two gentlemen . whom Mr. O'Connell addresses as editors of the T i mes. That an invasion of private life is not an allowable means of combating an enemy, is a proposition which all will readily admit. The saying of a Greek orator, that no man ought to be trusted by the public whose private life is not above reproach, may or may not be true ; but, before we can sit in judgment on any man's pri vate life, we aught to know the motives of his conduct, and the circumstances in which he was placed, and on such an inquiry no public tribunal can enter. But when a party threatens the private life of another, the euestion is, whether is the menace offensive or defen sive ? In these cases the assailant at all events is not entitled to reproach him who retaliates, whatever the public may be justified in doing. Whoever, therefore, may be entitled to express disgust at the publication of these letters, we think this language comes with very bad grace from an Evening paper which nightly outrages decency in its malignant and ribald at tacks upon Mr. O'Connell, and Yet pretends to wondrous zeal for religion, and even to moderation in the tone of its diatribes. It is really ludicrous to observe the sanctimonious whine of that jour nal over what it calls Mr. O'Connell's " hateful letter," when we recollect the outrageously abusive language invariably used by its conductors whenever— and that is as often as the paper is published—they mention Mr. O'Connell's name, or refer to the Catho lic priesthood and the condition 'of Ireland. They who in the fulfilment of their avocations make a trite use of such terms as " blackg uarc li sm ," " ruffianly," cow . ardly," " mendicant," " liar," in their comments upon Mr. O'Connell's public conduct, have the pharisaic impudence to censure him for retorting their own in famous weapons upon his unremitting assailants ! Does not it well become such writers to give lectures on taste ? Had not the grossness of the unprovoked aggression of the Times upon Mr. O'Connell war ranted him in falling foul of his assailants, we should not only have censured his letter, but refused it insertion. Nothing short of the provocation he has received could justify the Honourable and Learned Gentleman in the course he has adopted and the language he has used. What are the facts out of which this violent retort has arisen ? In a letter to the Secretary of the General Association of Ireland, published some weeks ago, Mr. O'Connell said,• in reference to the adhesion of a Catholic Prelate to . the Association : " This very respected Prelate is as ready as ever he was to discountenance any agitation which he deems unneces sary ; and his coming forward at such a moment as the present demonstrates that the iron has entered our ver y souls ; and that Ireland is in the throes of a political con vulsion, occasioned by the audacious insolence of such an vnrespectable person as Lord Lyndhurst, of whom I shall say no more at present, as it will be my duty to bring in all its proper bearings before the public the hideous details (pis life. He has provoked ma to it, and I have declined to act upon that provocation as long as my reply could he imputed to personal or individual resentment. I abide my time to, give flee full history of all the partnerships that have distingiiished his ; but I reserve them fin. the period if the greatest utility; that is, for the beginning of the next session of Parliament." These were the only allusions at all personal to Baron Lyndhurst that appeared in Mr. O'Connell's letter. The Times fastened on this passage, and on the 20th ult. un s l u i ee d i ;s ent i re reservo i r of scurrility and malice upon tie author in the following style :--- What an unredeemed and unrcdeeniable scoundrel is this O'Connell to make'such h threat, and at such a time too ! If he has not lied more foully than it could .have entered into the imagination of the Devil himself to lie, he makes the threat with his own wife dying under his very eyes ! Ole ! how long shall such a wretch as this be tole rated among civilized men But But let him mark us well : as surely as he dares to invade the privacy of the life of Lord Lyndhurst, or of any other man, woman, or child, that may happen, by themselves or their relatives, to be opposed to him in politics, so surely will we carry the war into his domiciles at Derrynane and Dublin, and show up the whole brood of O'Connells, young-and old." The atrocity of this attack has not been equalled in onadav, and has never been surpassed. It was un provoked, uncalled for, unwarranted, and brutal. Nor did the Liberal Press allow so foul and malevolent a piece of literary beastliness to escape censure for a day. _l . r. O'Connell, the reader has observed, did not al lude, proximately or remotely, to Lord Lyndhurst's private life, and the context demonstrates that " the partnerships" hinted at must have been exclusively political, fur Mr. O'Connell promised to bring them under the notice of Parliament ; and we need not re mark, that in Parliament lie would not be permitted, had he the inclination, to lift the veil that screens the privacy of domestic life. The Learned Baron's poli tical partnerships are sufficiently numerous and revolt ing to answer the purposes of his adversaries ; and to the exposure of these Mr. O'Connell evidently promised, in the quoted extract from his letter, to apply himself. This must have been perceived by the Times, though it suited the spiteful purpose of its conductors to torture the words of the letter to a meaning which they were not intended to bear and did not convey ; and even to follow the ingenious device of M'Ghee, by forging the word " private into the version of the original document given by them in their editorial columns. These opinions we expressed three weeks ago, and we are confirmed in them by another perusal of Mr. O'Connell's letter, and of the savage scurrility which was flung upon the Learned Gentleman by a writer who showed that he really is, as he professes to be, Mr. O'Connell's "sworn foe," and by allowing perso nal enmity to warp his conduct as a journalist, de graded, so far, the character of the press. No doubt we shall hear a great deal of trashy talk about.O'Con nell's coarseness, vulgarity, brutality, &c., in his retort upon his " sworn foes." What ! and is lie to be black guarded, vilified abused through every mood and tense —every morning and every night—by pharisees, renegades, and hirelings—are his actions to be misrepre sented—his motives assailed; his family traduced—and his own private life, which we believe to be as blameless as that of most men—menaced with libellous calumny—is all this to be done with impunity ? And if Mr. O'Connell turn upon his enemies, and meet their at tacks with their own favourite weapon, is there to be no justification, no excuse for him ? To the winds with such despicable cant Away with such spurious morality ! The treatment experienced by Mr. O'Con nell at the hands of Lord LyndhurSt and the Tory journalists would warrant any retaliation to which he could resort. His assailants have outlawed them selves, and are not entitled to the privileges and immu nities of society. Having outraged decency and trampled upon decorum in their perpetual abuse of Mr. O'Connell, they h ave no right to- claim or to ex pect moderation in his retorts. Of this they may rest assured, the public sympathy will not sustain them in the conflict which they have gratuitousl y sought, nor alleviate the torture which may be inflicted by blows, the use of which they have themselves taught._-. Morning Chronicle. That most respectable person Mr. Daniel O'Con nell has been pleased to address to the editor of the Pilot two letters, which we give in another column, from our Contemporary the Standard, whose,but observa tions on the epistles we would gladly copy also, that our doing so might subject us to the imputation of being parties to panegyrics on ourselves. Daniel calls the gentlemen whom he addresses "editors of the Times newspaper," and, again, "the principal writers" in it. He threatens, moreover, to give their "own histories," and, if we have been able to gather mean ing from more rabid rant than ever before proceeded from an animal ont of a strait .waistcoat, he threatens also to give the histories of all persons connected with this journal. We believe there is no such person who cares two straws how soon Daniel berr ins his work ; but if there be any one who does, we think we may safely console him s . vith the sug g estion, that as Daniel never yet spoke the t rut h except by accident, it is most likely he lies here after his accustomed fashion. Every body knows, and Daniel's nearest friends and most in timate acquaintance know best, that he is without ex ception the greatest liar in Europe ;—perhaps we are overrating the oriental Long-bow s in seam°. them above him. Were it not for thi s characte r which Daniel has everywhere earned, we would willin g ly lend him a helping hand , and furnish him with mate rials - for all the biographies lie menaces. But what would be the use of this ? Were we rascals, we should only have to get Daniel to say so, in order to have it believed that we were the honestest fel lows under the sun. So again—being gentlemen, if we were to make Daniel call us so, we should at once be pronounced unredeemable blackguards. We, therefore, leave the Irish Munchausen to make his own materials. The only point on which the public is concerned in this matter is, that Daniel having threatened to make an attack upon Lord Lyndhurst's private character, we declared that if he executed his threat, "we would carry the war into his domiciles at Derrynane and Dublin, and show up the whole breed of O'Connells, young and old." We make no vain boasting, no asseverations ; but so sure as Daniel O'Connell makes good his menace, so surely will we make good ours. If he doubts us, let him try.—Times. The addresses of several Liberal Members of Parlia ment to their constituents, to which we adverted about ten days since, and especially the letter of Sir Win. Molesworth to the electors of East Cornwall, have, as we anticipated, produced a strong sensation through out the country. The latter document, though scarcely noticed by any of our Contemporaries at the time of its publication, has now become the topic of general discussion—its liberal and frankly expressed opinions callinj forth an approving response from the Reformers, and, as a matter of course, with every thing honest, honourable, and patriotic, forming a text for Tory denunciation. The rank and character of Sir 'William Molesworth are such that not even the foulest and most depraved journal in Europe dare question the integrity of his motives, and, therefore, the Times not having a pretext, nor shadow of a pre text to indulge its favourite occupation of Billings gate invective in this regard, and not being able to b shake the position taken by the Hon. Baronet, at tempts to reply by fallacious assertions, of which it has always an ample supply—some worn-out nonsense about " ancient national institutions, and an attack upon the " logic" of the letter, so illogical in itself, that the dullest schoolboy could expose its fallacies. Sir William declares his opinions honestly, and without disguise. He is in favour of the Ballot, Tri ennial Parliaments, an extension of the Suffrage, the separation .of Church and State, the expulsion of the Bishops from the Lords, and last, and most important, the Reform of the House of Lords. These opinions, though entertained by the great majority of the people of Great Britain, and amongst the rest by the majority of Sir William's constituents, he foresees must prevent his re-election without great expenditure and personal exertion, and therefore he announces his intention cf not offering himself as a candidate at the next elec tion. Sir Villiam is perfectly aware that the electors of East Cornwall would support end return him as the representative of the principles which he avows, were they at liberty to vote without undue influence and control ; but he is equally aware that the Tory and Whig-Tory landlords, churchmen, &c., would inter fere with the free And fair exercise of the elective fran chise, and consequently the expenses of opposing such illegal and corrupt authority would be enormous. Thus, feeling in his own person the evil of not . havins• the protection of the ballot, he recommends to his constituents to exact a pledge in favour of that mode. of voting from the next can did ate f or t h e i r represen tation.. 'This—the ballot—the protection of the poor man from the persecution of the rich, in the exer cise of his first right of citizenship, is called by the. Times " the most unconstitutional, extravagant, and odious, of all u lt ra -R a di ca l propositions."' Ile Times exhibits its logic by arguing that, because Sir William was already returned without the ballot, the presence or absence of the ballot could not have the slightest effect in now turning his friends against him. Oh, rare logician ! But we might as well reason with " an affidavit man" of the Old Bailey as with a writer who, disregarding honour, truth, character, consis tency, country, and all the estimable attributes of man, seeks only to pander to the vilest cravings of party, and batten on the produce of his prostitution. One fallacy more, . however. The Times observes, " It appears to us, as we think it must to Sir William him self. upon a moment's further reflection, that if he has really ceased to represent the constituency which re turned him, he is bound in conscience not to wait for a general election. It is his duty to retire now." Sir William never asserted, as the Times ingeniously im plies, that he ceased to represent the constituency which returned him, but expressed his opinion tlit, that constituency would, in case of an election, be de terred from supported him. His resignation, there fore, at the present moment would be the grossest abandonment of a great trust. It would he deserting his post in the hour of need, and voluntarily exposing his constituents to all the evils which he deprecates. It is not alone the sentiments of the electors of East Cornwall, which Sir William Molesworth represents in the opinions to which he has so nobly given expres sion, but the feelings of the whole British people. Why then should he retire ?-111orning Advertiser.' The recent revolutionary movement in Portugal proves that the Queen of that country ought to have been attending to her own affairs when she was inter meddling in those of Spain. She had better have kept the " Portuguese auxiliary legion" at home, than sent it to learn a revolutionary lesson in a neighbouring kingdom. The quadruple alliance—the master-piece of Lord Palmerston's diplomatic genius—has certainly had the most disastrous effects upon the concerns of the two unhappy Queens, whom our noble and chival rous Secretary for Foreign Affairs had so gallantly taken under his protection !—a protection always as fatal to his friends as their enemies could desire. Louis Philippe—another member of the quadruple alliance— has been rather too clever for Lord Palmerston, and, consequently, has not allowed himself to be befooled into sending an army over the Pyrenees to support a revolution in Spain by endangering his own throne. He did, indeed, allow the Foreign Legion of Algiers, consisting mostly of political fugitives, of whom he wa s glad to be rid, to give the assistance of their bayonets to a Government which, we are told, is the choice 9fthe people, and yet which could not, in any shape, sustain itself without foreihn aid ; but nothing could induce him to imitate our Whig Government in sending any French troops into that country to "co-operate" with the legion of the redoubted General Evans and the British Royal Marines. He has left to British valour the undisputed, and we believe the unenvied, possession of the laurels which it has won in the memorable fields of Hernani, Fontarabia, and others equally glorious. His late Minister, Thiers, who would have been the op pressor of the ancient liberties of Switzerland, if his power were equal to his intentions, made great efforts to persuade his Royal Master to Palmerstonize (if we must coin a word) French policy in Spain. The more sagacious Louis Philippe thought it better that the Quadruple Treaty should be converted into waste paper, like the famous protocols from the same hand, than that French armies should be sent to imbibe des mocratic instruction in the same school in which Scr jeant Garcia and the " heroes of La Granja" had studied. The fate to which a military democracy has forced the Queen of Portugal to submit, will not make the King of the French more inclined than he was previously to undertake the armed settlement of Spain. Sound policy is that which would prevent a Govern ment from intermeddling in the internal concerns of th e other people. It was that policy which the Whigs atsid.levocated most vehemently when out of office ; it was Policy which they proclaimed as their own, under name of non-intervention, on their first acces- Cony t e o nt P io o n wer . ton violated and it is the policy which they have ever since,. from the disgraceful Anglo-G . allic Spanish sucea e g s a s i i nst the King of Holland to the Jodi- rect an d dishonest interference in the war of the on.—Morning Herald. The internal affairs of Malta, at the departure cf the last packet, on whose energies destru c ti ve are • Ministers, the 3d i nstant, accor di ng to our private letter s , were by no n means improved. Our absorbed principleb y an at ende a- Y our to carry on the home, have had of late but littl e tim e to bestow on distant objects ; and, the steps they h ave adopted, in the hope of allaying the discontents at Malta, have a, been of a_ o that left-handed nature that give no to the than i ea generality of the people. It is now m since the first incendiary pamphlets were s e et t ayi out from this country, and were achnitted to free circulation there, and have been permitted to inflam e the minds of many up to the present time, unrepressed and isas contradicted by the Government. As a pretended re. ITN, LONDON, TH needy for these evils the liberty of the Press was soon after promised ; but this was hailed as a boon only by those whose object was strife and contention. The Liberty of the Press cannot be made palateable to that purely Roman Catholic population unless it could be softened down by a religious censorship, and this Lord Glecelg, as an English Minister, and a Pro testant dare not do, nor has he had the courage for seven or eight months, during which the sub ject has been pending, to come to a decision upon it. The state of the law in Malta has long been a sub ject of complaint ; and here, too, the incapacity of the Colonial department is illustrated, and a proof afforded of the folly of allowing the moral force of authority to be weakened by supineness. Things are come to such a pass that the people hesitate to accept even of an amelioration from a Government that has yielded to dictation and debasement. An improved and clear system of criminal law, which had been many years in preparation, under the direction of Lord Glenelg's predecessors, and the elements of which were very generally approved, before these disorders, having now received his Majesty's approbation, was lately promulgated. But how has this been met ? By the distrust of the people, excited by the open opposition of a few Radical lawyers, the scum of the profession, who are, of course, attached to the cor rupted mass of the confused and almost unintelligible old legislation ; for this was the carrion upon which they thrived. It is true that the appointment of a Mr. Austin as Chief Commissioner for the affairs of Malta had been publicly made known, from which some persons foolishly hoped a speedy relief from the present state of things. But, contemporaneously with this announcement, a report was circulated by the corn merchants, upon the authority of a letter from Sir G. Grey, that Mr. Ewart had obtained for them a promise that they should have the uninterrupted supply of corn to the inhabitants. If this important question be thus decided in Downing-street, without inquiry, and without consulting the feelings of the people, but merely as a concession to the friends of the Ministry, what has become of the boasted liberality, the thousand times repeated free Government prin ciple, the beautiful song of popular controul, by chaunting which the present men raised themselves into power ? For what purpose is Mr. Austin and his colleagues to go out to Malta, if so principal a point can be settled without investiga tion on the spot ? The corn question of Malta was dispassionately explained in our paper of the 29th of July last. The unpopularity of trusting to merchants, where they are few, for the supply of bread to a whole population, is, from various letters we have seen, now more manifest than ever ; and we have no hesitation in saying that, if the Commissioners do their duty ho nestly, they will soon convince the Noble Secretary for the Colonies th a t h e mus t no t comm i t t h e we ll-b a i ng of his Majesty's loyal subjects in Malta. to the tender mercies of lawyers and monopolizers of corn, unless he is ready to sacrifice altogether the confidence which the people once had in the British Government, and with draw that protection to which they are entitled by pro raises made to them at various times—a protection which has reference to the schemes of internal plotters as well as of external enemies. We have already ex pressed our opinion that the real gri evance o f th e , peo ple of Malta is, that they are abandoned to the views of a faction—an anti-English party, whose object is revolution, and who are working against the he s t jute- rests of their country—nihil p atriunt nisi nomen ; and to such a set our Ministers lend a wiliing ear, for the sake of courting one or two votes in Parliament, which they know full well that they cannot afford to lose. The social condition of the great bulk of the people—the loyal and peaceable classes—finds no sympathy in the breasts of a Whig-Radical Cabinet. —Morning Post. The address of Sir William Moles wor th t o th e elec tors of East Cornwall has produced, as we antici pated, a considerable sensation throughout the coun try ; and, if we may judge from the 'limes of yester day, the Tories see in the local differences between the two sections of Reformers, which it indicates, symp toms of permanent division between the Whigs and Reformers. When the correspondence between Sir John Rashleigh and Sir William appears, we shall then be in possession of the grounds on which the assertion respecting the Whigs of East Cornwall was made. But, whatever may have been the case in East Corn wall, we trust Reformers in general will not commit the unspeakable folly implied in the defence of the New castle electors, so well pointed out by Mr. O'Connell, of supporting those from whom they differ altogether, rather than those from whom they differ on some points. " With the differences,' says the Times," be tween this gentleman (Sir William) and Sir John Rashleigh, upon a point stated by the former, viz. his assertion that some of the Whig aristocracy had withdrawn their support from him because of his de termination to reform (that is, to annihilate or per vert from its constitutional functions) the hereditary House of Lords—with any difference arising out of that assertion we have nothing to do. The reform of the House of Lords,' in the actual condition of the mind of England upon constitutional questions, may, thank God, be regarded as the cry of maniacs, rathe r than reasonable statesmen." The reform of the Hou se of Lords will become necessary if that House be found an invincible obstacle in the way of all other reform. We have at the same time uniformly admitted that, lli the present state of the public mind, no Ministry would, however inclined, feel themselves justified in proposing such a reform as a Government measure. The people of England are averse to organics' changes, and many most respectable Reformers be lieve that the Lords may yet have their eyes opened to the danger to themselves of running counter to public opinion. The question o f Peerage Re form, however, is one which the public are en titled to discuss, and no Reformer ought to object t o the most extensive inquiries as to the mode by which the present collision between the two Houses can be terminated. We can conceive no more dangerous doctrine than that people ought to remain, with their arms crossed, passive spectators of the scenes enacting in the House of Lords. To tell the people that the Lords are determined that the Reform Bill shall be a dead letter—that measures of improvement may pass the Commons, but will be thrown out as a matter of course in the Upper House—that this state of things must be submitted to with patience—is, in fact, to proclaim that the Constitution is a dead let ter, and that the Lords are the sovereign masters of the nation. If the people of England could be brought to listen with patience to such language, we should despair of the destinies of the country. No ; the Conservatives are not to be combatted by means which engender apathy or indifference. A careful analysis of the lists of Conservative voters will show that they have few disinterested supporters ; but let the people be taught that there is no cure for the disease which now disturbs the action of the Constitution, and you take from them the motive for generous sacrifices in support of Reform principles, and swell the Conservative ranks. The question, how is the collision between the two Houses to be overcome ? is not, therefore, a question which can safely be evaded. Peerage Re form appears to many Reformers the only mode of solving the difficulty. But, if any other mode can be suggested, let it be laid before the public. All we contend for is, that the public interest ought to go for something, and that the Reformer who has no project foafulhtilsviotwhnthofosre who meetinseek in good gthediffieu faith lty fora ught mode nott o o fi nd f restoring efficiency to the Constitution. The Leeds Mercury has, we trust unintentionally, misrepresented the course we have pursued with respect to Peerage Reform. That paper on Saturday last observes, " Morning Chronicle, the Spectator, and Mr. O'Con nell, all declare, in strong terms, that the dissolution of the union among Reformers would bring the Tories into power. Yet they all press on this question, which will as certainly divide the Reformers as the Catho lic Question divided the Tories, and as certainly be fatal to them. But then they say that Ministers and their friends ought to prevent this division by becom ing Peerage Reformers." We never said any such thing ; on the contrary, we have always declared that Ministers ought to follow, not to outrun, public opi nion in regard to this particular question. But we would ask the Leeds Mercury in what way it is pos sible to preserve union among Reformers by excluding from discussion the means of overcoming obstacles to reform ? Circumstances, and not individuals, press on SDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1836. this question ; and true wisdom consists in examining inevitable difficulties, and not in shutting our eyes to them. Reformers who contemplate no reform is a con tradiction in terms. Reformers, therefore, can only be united by the hope of giving effect to their wishes, and whoever tells them there is no ground for hope, thereby destroys the motives for their union—Morn ing Chronicle. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. NEW COURT. -—.- - - Robert Sanzs, a clerk m the Bank of England, and a mere lad in appearance, was indicted for feloniously marry ing Caroline Hamblin, his wife Kesiah being then and now alive. Elizabeth Mortimer resides at No. 81, Seymour-place ; and on the 6th of July, 1833, she went to Paddington Church, where she witnessed the marriage between the prisoner and Keziah Mason, whom she saw alive yesterday. By Mr. DOANE—Had not known the prisoner long before his marriage ; nor did she hear the publication of the banns. His father was not at the wedding. Believes the prisoner was a minor at the time. Neither of the two wives promoted this prosecution. They both wish to re commend him to mercy. The prisoner was considered a respectable youth. Caroline Hamblin (the second wife) lives at 18, Bryan ston-street, and is a tobacconist. He represented himself a single man, on the 27th of June last. She had suffered nothing in point of property from her short connection with the prisoner. By Mr. DOANE—Has no desire that he should be pu nished. The present prosecution was instituted by her re lations, without her consent. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The COMMON SERGEANT consulted Alderman Atkins for some time as to what punishment should be awarded to the prisoner, who was eventually told he would not be transported. The other cases tried Cid not possess any public interes POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. A little woman, named Frances Brittain, who has been a sort of hanger-on upon the inhabitants of Doctor's Com mons for many years, was brought before Mr. Alderman KELLY, charged with having presented a popular begging petition at a banking-house, in Lombard-street. The defendant went into the banking-house with her pe tition, round which was a piece of black crape, and ad dressed the gentlemen in rhyme upon the subject of her necessities, which the poor laws, although they professed to relieve the destitute, did not all alleviate. As the parties in the banking-house neither fancied poetry nor mendicancy, they directed the police to clear her out, and as she became most annoyingly poetical, and could not pronounce the letter "r," she was hurried off to the Mansion-house, from whence many persons have been removed for their inventive powers exercised in another way to the gaol of Newgate. From the moment she was taken into custody she seemed to be in the highest degree inspired. Alderman KELLY—Was she tipsy, officer. Witness— Not in the slightest degree. I have never seen her intoxi cated, but she is quite amongst the poets. She'll go on for hours if not interrupted. Mr. Hobler—No, she never drinks. If she did, she might lose the vibratory poxer cf her tongue, and I think that would be the end of her. We have had her here a great many times withi❑ the last twenty years, and I fear those who used to contribute to her support are all dead. Defendant—l believe, your Lordship, you and Mr. Nob ler are the only friends I have left. For your sakes I was trying to make a few pence in Lombard-street ; but you see what is the fate of my petition, although I defy any one to say that I am an impostor. Alderman KELLY—You know that you are wrong in making such applications. Defendant—Will you tell me what to do? Fair, honest, and still able to work, in my case those two qualities are of no service. What on earth am Itodo ? Throw poverty to the dogs ; its a physic that I have been long used to.— ( A laugh.) Alderman KELLY—There are '2s. for you, but you must drop this petition trade. Defendant (pocketing the money)—l'll never disgrace your money, my Lord, by asking a farthing until it is all gone.—(Laughter.) But appetite returns, and I owe my landlord eleven weeks' rent. Alderman KELLY—I suppose that you cleared very little rent by your poetry? Defendant—Nothing at all in my parish. Doctors' Commons is a bad spot for the muses. They have such bad taste there that I think they'd put me in the watchhouse if I spoke a word of rhyme. I'd stand a much better chance in Billingsgate. Mr. Nobler—How old are you now ; sixty ? De fendant—When I am cold and hungry I feel much beyond sixty, I assure you ; but I don't know my age. I must go on with the old system when my money is out, I am afraid, Mr. Hobler, except you give me something to do. Alderman KELLY—Why, what can you do besides writing poetry ? Defendant—Besides writing poetry Do you call that nothing ?—(A laugh.) I can do more—l can teach people to write poetry. Alderman KELLY—WeII, whatever you do, you must not annoy people of business. If you are in necessity you have a claim upon your parish, whatever people may say to you, and I advise you to act accordingly. Defendant—When beggars apply for parochial relief The welcome you meet is, " You rascally thief Why don't you work or beg, borrow, or steal, Of those that are able to pay for your meal." Only pass by the parish the devil may care, If you feed with a Bishop or feed with a bear. —(Laughter.) Alderman KELLY—You had better give me back those two shillings for some more deservinc , person. Defendant—l'd willingly do so, but that I think people would never forgive me for being such a fool.—(Laughter.) Mr. Hobler—l'd have you try the press now that the stamp is reduced, for I know some people to be paid for worse stuff at the enormous rate of a penny a line. Defendant—God bless you, Mr. Hobler, you always give me good advice, as well as something to keep the wolf from the door. " Long life to you my good old clerk, with your pen stuck in your ear, May your money increase from day to day, and your children from year to year." Sappho then retired. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday William Wyatt, a respectable looking man, and James Prynn and James Butler, having the appear ance of porters, were brought up by Barnard, 110 G, charged by Mr. Stoken, bookseller and stationer, of No. 53, Regent-street, St. James's, with having stolen a marble slab, of considerable value. The prisoners were discharged, and the property was ordered to be detained at the station-house. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday Mr. Norman, baker, Carlisle-street, was charged before Mr. CHAMBERS with having assaulted an officer sent on his premises to put in force an execution on his goods, for nor-payment of the poor rates. The man stated that he had been empowered by the parish authorities of St. Anne's Soho, who had obtained a distress warrant, signed by two Magistrates, to distrain on Mr. Norman's goods for 71. 10s. due for poor rates, and that, while in the execution of his duty, Mr. Norman had laid hold of him by the collar of his coat, and turned him out. This was the assault complained of. Mr. Norman—l confess I did as stated ; but I had good grounds for acting in that manner. Mr. CHAMBERS—Let me know what they are. Mr. Norman—Formerly it was the practice to excuse those persons who had served the office of overseers from paying their poor-rate, and some of the most respectable men in the parish are at this moment owing amounts from 5/. to 151. to the parishioners. In order to determine the question a case was tried at the Westminster Sessions, and the result was that order for the payment of the rate was made. Now, though this Case was to determine all the others, I know that only one has paid, and that the rest re main uncollected. Why, then, am I called on to pay any rates when the larger sum is still due ? A long conversation then ensued. Mr. Norman's ob jection was not to paying the money, but to being compelled to pay it before others, similarly liable, were not cal ed upon. The result of the whole was thatthe proceedings in the as sault charge was dropped, and Mr. Norman agreed to pay the amount, which he did. LAMBETH -STREET. Mr. Thomas Moss, the landlord of the Queen's Head public house in the Dog-row, Bethnal-green, appeared to an information charging him with knowingly harbouring two police constables while on duty, which offence rendered him liable to a penalty of 101. In support of the charge a police sergeant belonging to the K division stated that on the morning of Sunday week, at twenty minutes past one o'clock he missed two con stables from their duty, and on going to the house of the defendant he found them both in the taproom. He sub sequently reported the circumstance to his inspector, and the present information was in consequence laid against the landlord. In reply to the questions of Mr. COMBES, the witness said that the policeman had on their uniforms and armlets at the time. Their names were Thomas Markham, 97 K, and John Pocock, 135 K. The defendant, in reply to the charge, said that his house was quite clear of customers, and he was preparing to go to bed, when Pocock, 135 K, knocked at his door. He inquired who was there, and the reply was, " Police He then opened the door, and Pocock said that be was taking medicine, and was then very ill, and requested he would warm half a pint of beer for him. Believing him to be ill, he complied with his request, and while he was in the house, the other policeman came up, and asked for half a pint of beer, which, having the other man there, he did not like to refuse him. Mr. COMBES, after consulting with the other Magistrate, said he considered the case a bad one, and convicted the de fendant in the penalty of 20s. and costs. The defendant considered the case a very hard one. Mr. COMBES observed that had he said so a moment be fore he would have imposed double the penalty. Mr. Ham, the inspector, admitted th a t th e po li ceman Pocock really was taking medicine at the time. UNION-HALL. Yesterday a tradesman, living in the Waterloo-road, was charged with committing an assault on his daughter, a de licate girl of 15 years of age. The girl, who exhibited some black bruises on the lower part of her shoulders, stated that on Friday last her father beat her with one of his boots, in consequence of her not having got up out of bed at seven o'clock in the morning. He also struck her with his fist, and upon several other occasior.s she had been assaulted by him, and was anxious to go anywhere so that she would not he liable to such harsh treatment. She added that her father was married to a second wife, and that prior to it he was not in the habit of treating her (the daughter) with such severity. The father in his defence said that he had certainly cor rected his daughter, but that it was owing to her improper conduct. She was not only in the habit of committing acts of petty theft, but she had also a propensity for going - out at very unseasonable hours without apprising any one of her intentions. She was fond of getting up as early as four o'clock in the morning and going out, and in order to be in readiness for her early rambles she often went to bed with out taking off her clothes. He added that he was com pelled to resort to harsh measures, to cure her of such freaks, if possible. Mr. TRAIL said that using his boot for the purpose of correcting a girl of her age was exceedingly improper— nothing could justify it. The daughter admitted that she was fond of getting up early on some mornings to walk before the business of her father's shop commenced. The Magistrate said that four o'clock in the morning was a very unseasonable hour for any young girl to get up to take a walk, and as it was against the wishes of her father she ought not to do it. The Magistrate, however, again said that the father had treated the girl with too much severity, and desired that the warrant should stand open against him for a fortnight to give him an opportunity of sending her to a boarding-school, where strict attention would be paid to her morals.

At a respectable meeting held at Cuckfield, Sussex, on \Vednesday last, an unanimous resolution was come to to allot portions of land, at moderate rents, to deserving la bourers of the district. Mr. Cooper's narrative of his residence in France, his excursion up the Rhine, and second visit to Switzerland, includes many subjects of singular interest, especially when treated by the pen of the author of " The Pilot," " The Spy," &c. Such are his record of conversations with Lafa yette—his interview with Louis Philippe—his sketch of the present Court of France—his account of the cholera in Paris— his statement, derived from personal observation, of the revolt at the funeral of General Lamarque—and his excursions and adventures in Germany, and among the mountains of Switzer land. AMERICAN TARIFF.—The duties payable on the importation of grain and flour into the United States in Ame rican ships, from countries with which that nation has treaties of reciprocity, are as follows : Wheat 25 cents, per bushel Barley l5 ditto 7d. Oats Flour .. The duty on grain coming direct from the place of growth in ships of those countries, pay 10 per cent. extra. INCENDIARISM.—Another diabolical attempt was made on Monday night, by some wretch, to burn down the premises occupied by John Holmes, the property of Mr. George Morris, of the Globe Inn, in Southmoulton. The fire was discovered in the thatch of an outhouse about ten o'clock, but a few feet from the place where it had been before ignited, but it was providentially extinguished before any serious da mage was done. This is the third attempt that has been made to destroy this property.— Western Luminary. The Tories of the town of Northampton and the county are endeavouring to get up a political dinner, to take place early in the ensuing month. They are using their ut most endeavours to obtain a numerous attendance, but they ate likely to fail, although the names of Sir R. Gunning, M.P., Sir C. Knight, M.P., and B. Cartwright, Esq., are put forward with the view of procuring an attendance. They expect to induce the Mayor of Northampton to take the chair. WINDSOR.—The Commissioners of his Majesty's Woods have at last purchased those tenements near the Long Walk, at the entrance to Park-street, and have determined upon their removal. It is the intention to form' a shrubbery, with a neat palisade in front along the line. It is proposed to erect a double crescent at rvlude ford, near Christchurch, composed of moderate-sized houses, but capable, if required, of being thrown two into one, with ornamental gardens fronting an esplanade, with a descent by steps on to the beach. BILLS OF EXCHANGE.—Our attention has been called by a correspondent to a paragraph which appeared in our Paper of Tuesday, stating that last Session an Act of Parliament made bills of exchange due on Sunday payable on Monday, instead of Saturday, as heretofore. Having since looked into the Act 6th and 7th William IV., chap. 58, we find that it does not refer, as the paragraph would imply, to bills of exchange generally, but is limited to hills accepted for honour or addressed in case of need ; in reference to which the Act provides " That if the day following the day on which such bill of exchange shall become due shall happen on u Sunday, Good Friday, or Christmas Day, it shall not be necessary to present or forward for presentment to such ac ceptor for honour or referee until the day following." It is obvious, therefore, that the Act of Parliament has a very limited operation, and does not apply to general transactions in bills of exchange.—Morning Paper. 'We regret to announce another melancholy coach accident (making the third during the last week) which oc curred on the evening of Saturday last, on the Windsor road, near Cranford-bridge. About seven o'clock, as Mr. John Moody, the proprietor of the old Windsor coaches, was com ing towards town with an extra coach, loaded inside and out, the vehicle was run against by a country waggon, which was proceeding in a contrary direction, when the horses immedi. ately became unmanageable, and, startinr , off at full speed, ran the coach with su c h f orce aga i ns t the bank that it was instantly upset, and the outside passengers precipitated to the ground with great violence. The force of the concussion having broken the reins, the horses continued their impetuous career until they arrived at Cranford-bridge Inn, where they were stopped without doing any further damage. Mr. Bacon, proprietor of the inn, immediately hastened with his servants to the spot where the accident had occurred, where, on their arrival, they found that Mr. Moody and 3 of the passengers had sustained extensive injuries. They were instantly assisted to the Cran ford-bridge Inn, and medical assistance sent for. Several sur geons promptly attended, whose opinion it was that Mr. Moody's collar-bone and three of his ribs were broken. Mrs. Smith, a lady residing at Windsor, it was also found had re ceived severe internal injuries, and two gentlemen, named At kinson and Thorpe, were also severely bruised, but fortunately had no bones broken. During Sunday and Monday, Mr. Moody lay in an extremely dangerous state, but yesterday morning, the swelling have gone slightly down, the surgeon ascertained his collar-bole was not broken, but dislocated. It was immediately set, and it is hoped he may recover, although 'the chances are against him, being an old man, and previously in but an indifferent state of health. Mrs. Smith still remains at the inn, suffering dreadfully from the injuries she has re ceived, but hopes are entertained she will u ltimately recover. The other two passengers have so far recovered as to be able to proceed to town. It is not known who the waggon be longed to which occasioned the lamentable accident, the wag goner having immediately driven off. AWFUL STEAM-BOAT 15iS,A.STE at. We are indebted to an intelligent gentleman from Kentucky for the following particulars of a dest.rel tive explosion on the river Ohio. The steamil?°' to Pitts, Motto, Motto, making her first trip from Louisville burgh, ran on the shoal at the foot of Blennerhassetitt: Island. In attempting to get off, too great a quantity of of steam accumulated, and the boiler burst, killing' ea mediately three persons, and scalding severely that they died within a few hours, d t 'L a more, it was feared, would survive their i n jury nn' t Y ise few days.
